See contrib/dblink for a possible workaround. Note that if you want to use it for INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE, you'll have to grab the latest version out of CVS. There doesn't seem to be much support for a native cross-database access among the core developers, so I don't think you'll see that soon. As I think others have mentioned, the next release (7.3) will support multiple schemas in one database which might be a solution for you.
